    Ancient lucumonia belonging to the Etruscan dodecapoli.
    Cortona is located on a hill almost 500 meters above sea level.
    As it was for the Etruscans, Cortona is still in a strategic position which allows, with short trips, to reach important artistic and cultural centers.
    They were built by the Etruscans in the 4th century BC. the imposing walls that still surround the city for about three kilometers, the noble tombs known as "melon" scattered around the city and the monumental funerary altar adorned with sphinxes, a unique example in Italy. In Cortona the Tabula Cortonensis was also found, a bronze sheet with one of the longest inscriptions in the Etruscan language.
    Thanks to its typically Tuscan historical center, Cortona is loved and visited by many foreign tourists, especially English and Americans. In the Anglo-Saxon countries the tourist success of Cortona is also due to the success of a film "Under the Tuscan sun", with Diana Lane, shot almost entirely in the city. Similarly to what foreign tourists do in front of the Trevi Fountain in Rome, every day many American tourists look out onto Piazza Signorelli eager to take a "selfie" in front of the fountain in the square, where one of the most romantic scenes of the film was shot. Too bad that, unlike in Rome, the much desired fountain does not exist, because it was built only to enrich the scenography of the film and dismantled at the end of the shoot.
    Curiosity:
    «Cortona: mother of Troy and grandmother of Rome»
    (Said Cortonese taken from vv. 163-171 of the III book of Virgil's Aeneid)
    ✱The legend says that one hundred years after the Universal Flood Noah entered the Chiana valley and was struck by this fertile place that he settled there for about thirty years. In the year 263 after the Universal Flood, Crano, son of Noah, arrived on a hill and liked the height of the place and the tranquility built the city of Cortona.
    From the descent of Crano Dardano was born who founded Lidia, today's Turkey, the city of Troy. From here some of the descendants, now Greek, returned to inhabit Turrenia, that is Tuscany: the Etruscans. These include Ulysses and Pythagoras.
    Aeneas descendant of Dardanus, a fugitive from destroyed Troy, landed in Lazio where his lineage founded Rome. So Cortona would have originated first in Troy and then in Rome.
    ✱On June 27, 1944 in Falzano, a hamlet of the municipality, a group of German soldiers made a fierce retaliation in response to the killing of two of their comrades (and the injury of a third) occurred the previous day by the partisans. Ten civilians were killed, some of whom were blown up with explosives after being locked up in the ruins of a house burned the day before

    Visité Cortona en junio 2018. Recorrí muchas calles y plazas que aparecen en el vídeo. También fui al pequeño Teatro Signorelli donde filmaron una escena de La vida es bella, con Ricardo Benigni. Un lugar bello y entrañable.
